Federation president Mehdi Taj announced the demands in a state television interview, framing them as essential guarantees for Iran's delegation.\n\n\"If we do not participate in the World Cup, we will lose a major diplomatic asset,\" Taj stated, highlighting the strategic importance of the tournament for Tehran. The conditions come amid heightened tensions following US-Israeli strikes against the Islamic Republic in late February, which have cast uncertainty over Iran's involvement.\n\nThe conditions include the issuance of visas for the Iranian delegation, respect for the Iranian staff, display of the Iranian flag and playing of the national anthem, and a high level of security at airports, hotels, and along travel routes to stadiums. These demands form a comprehensive list aimed at ensuring the delegation's dignity and safety.\n\nTaj also outlined the travel plan: the team will depart for Turkey at the end of the week, stay for 10 to 15 days, and then seek a charter flight to the United States. Iran is scheduled to be based in Tucson, Arizona, and will compete in Group G against New Zealand, Belgium, and Egypt.\n\nFIFA president Gianni Infantino has reaffirmed that Iran will play its matches in the US as planned, attempting to quell speculation about a potential boycott or relocation. However, the conditions set by Tehran indicate that the path to the tournament remains contingent on diplomatic assurances.\n\nThese demands echo previous instances where political issues have threatened World Cup participation. Iran previously faced tensions during the 2018 and 2022 tournaments, including disputes over visas and treatment of fans. The ten conditions now formalize those concerns into a binding framework.\n\nFor the World Cup organizers, accommodating such conditions may set a precedent. Other nations with strained relations with host nations could make similar requests. Security and protocol for Iran's delegation will now be under intense scrutiny.\n\nThe geopolitical backdrop is crucial. The US and Israel have conducted military strikes against Iran, escalating a long-running conflict. For Iran, the World Cup offers a platform for diplomatic engagement, but also risks humiliation if conditions are not met.\n\nInfantino's statement suggests FIFA aims to keep politics separate from sport, but the Iranian conditions show that is increasingly untenable. The coming months will determine whether a resolution is reached between Iran, the US, and FIFA.\n\nIn summary, Iran's ten conditions are a negotiating tactic that could either secure its participation or lead to its absence from a tournament where it could be a competitive outsider. The sports world watches closely as the June 11 kick-off approaches.\n\nBased on reporting from Foot - actualités, mercato, info & vidéo en continu.","news","Iran sets ten conditions for 2026 World Cup, demanding security, visas, and respect for flag and anthem amid geopolitical tensions.
